 Mr. WARNER. Mr. President, rollcall vote No. 275 was in 
reference to Executive Calendar No. 924, the nomination of Kent Jordan 
to be a U.S. Circuit Court Judge for the Third Circuit. I had to be 
necessarily absent from this vote so that I could attend and speak to 
an international conference in England sponsored by the Ditchley 
Foundation to discuss the steps required to eradicate worldwide 
terrorism. Had I been able to vote, I would have voted for cloture on 
the nomination.

invoke cloture on the tax extenders package, I would have voted in 
favor of it.
